Next session is Sept 17-20, 2026 in a wooded house above Nashville; it is sold out and the organizers keep a wait list. Eight campers spend four days with Abbie Gardner on resonator guitar, singing and songwriting, joined by guest artists for evening jams and entertainment. Tuition is $1,500 with a bed in a shared bunk room on site or $1,200 as a day camper, both covering meals and a Grand Ole Opry ticket, on a $250 deposit. Upper beginning players and up are welcome. Nearby hotels and short-term rentals are the alternative to bunking at camp.
